    I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of cutting back the salt a little bit. I used homemade chicken stock and just found it to be very bland. Mine was also cooked in 30 minutes.

    It seemed a sacrilege to not stir risotto on stovetop, but I was getting over a sickness and had to cut corners for dinner. I did however compromise by starting the risotto the same way 'real' risotto should--add oil to pot, saute some chopped onion/shallot, add rice and coat with oil. Add wine and cook down. THen I added the broth and popped in oven. That way when I took it out, the wine was already in it, I just added broth, butter and parm. I omitted the peas. I'd make it again this same way. It worked very nicely in the oven and it warmed up the house on a cold, damp day too. It took only 30 mins in oven though.

    Easier and more wonderful than you can even imagine! I am NOT the chef in this household but this is a go to meal for me. I add to this recipe 1 Cup frozen corn and either shrimp or chicken and I have a one pot meal that I didn't have to slave over a hot stove to make!

    Wow, was this easy. I mean sooooo easy. What a great and impressive side dish for family or company. I am not sure if the wine was an addition I liked so much, but it could easily omitted and replaced with stock. Also, as a general rule with Ina, I halved the salt to start, and it was plenty. I loved everything else about it, it is going straight to the recipe box!

    I made it last night after watching her make it yesterday. It was perfect and I wouldn't change anything. Just the right amount of seasoning. I served it with a port tenderloin. Super easy dinner. Thank you Ina!

    What a great way to make Risotto! Tried a couple of recipes, but this is the easiest. Creamy and lots of flavor! Using the oven leaves time to cook the rest of the meal. Perfectly cooked, and a lot less stirring! Thanks again Ina!
    PS hate peas, used asparagus instead, YUM!

    Creamy, easy. A little bland, but it's a good basic recipe with endless possibilities for adding ingredients.

    Although this is a super easy recipe, I have a couple of issues with it. Unlike other risotto recipes, it doesn't start with sauteing garlic or scallion/onion before adding the rice and it seems bland that way. Also, one cup of parmesan cheese and 2 teaspoons of salt is just too much. I actually found another baked risotto recipe that has more flavor and uses a lot less parmesan.
